Supreme Harem Hunter

Odino walked toward the edge of the stand, where Roy and Joy were standing on either side, waiting for him.

He came between them, on the edge of the stand, and looked down at the sea of young boys and girls who had hope and passion burning in their eyes.

"Hello, aspiring cultivators," Odino spoke softly, but his words echoed throughout the arena, making everyone go quiet.

The aspiring cultivators below perked up their ears, as this was the chance to change their destiny.

Seeing that the whole arena had gone silent, he started doing introductions. "Let me introduce myself first. I am Odino, one of the inner elders at the White Jade Sect. I will be managing this year's selection process."

"And about your introductions…We will know it after you show us that you are qualified to join us." Odino said with an innocent smile. "So, let's get straight to the point."

"This year, we decided to take two hundred disciples. A hundred more than previous years." Odino said as he wiggled his two fingers.

"YEAHH!" A cheer erupted among the participants. Some had zero hopes, some were not confident in their strengths, and some felt they were lacking. But this sudden increase in quota made those people ecstatic.

However, Galibar and others who knew about the news earlier had their faces darkened.

Julie looked at Odino and thought. 'They are expanding their force.'

"Okay, okay, hold your horses," Odino told everyone to calm down, but there was still some discussion going on. It seems this news had too much effect on their confidence.

Joy grimaced, then shouted out loud. "SHUT UP!"

Joy's yell boomed in the entire arena, making everyone's body straight. As a Golden Core Realm Cultivator, the participants who were most just at Foundation Establishment Realm couldn't bear the pressure from him except a few people.

Those few caught the eyes of the powerhouses that were watching.

"A respectful senior, maybe your future elder or teacher too, is talking, and you are all not listening to his words. Are you all showing disrespect to him and announcing to us that you would do this to everyone in the sect too?!" Joy's strict and questioning words made everyone gulp down the saliva on their throats.

Seeing everyone nervously looking at Joy, then at Odino as if to see if he was really mad. However, they saw Odino still had that smile on his face.

Odino truly didn't get mad, he knew kids of this age would be like this. 𝗳𝘳𝐞e𝙬𝙚𝚋𝗻𝚘𝚟𝗲l.𝑐𝑜ｍ

"Haha, it's okay. Elder Joy, you shouldn't be this much strict. They are still young." Odino waved his hand at Joy to tell him to calm down. He then looked down at the participants again and said."Don't ruin the emotion you have built up. Elder Joy is like that, so don't think too much."

The participants sighed in relief. It looked like they were fortunate.

…

Kaley, who was with 'Lenny' said with awe. "This Elder Odino is so nice."

'Lenny' nodded his head, agreeing with him. However, inside he was pondering. 'Is he hiding something? He feels too nice. I have to report it to Gale later.'

'Lenny' became concerned because it was unusual to see and experience such a pleasant feeling from someone in this bloody world.

…

"Now, let me tell you all about the first selection round. What it is and how it is going to be." Everyone perked their ears back up again.

Odino nodded in satisfaction and explained. "The first selection round is called Quick Hunters. In this round, you just have to simply kill beasts and show their cores to us."

"It might sound simple, but you have to remember two things. You have to compete against everyone at the same time and have to keep in mind about the scarce amount of beasts in the forest." ｆ𝓇𝘦ℯ𝙬𝑒𝐛n𝐨νe𝙡.c𝑜𝗺

Galibar and others were a little worried.

Brustiar looked at Odino and pondered. 'He is making everyone fight among themselves from the start. There will be looting and fighting among each other, or some might team up. However, the thing that is making me worried is the fighting among the family members.'

He sighed helplessly as he knew some of these kids would surely beat their own family members to win. The other two had the same headache, but Julie had a little less as her clan was more united than the other two.

"Now, about the conditions to win. You will have to bring ten Grade-2 beast cores, and the winners will be decided after checking the quality of the beast cores." Odino explained further more. "You can also win this round another way."

"If you can get us one Grade-3 beast core, you go to the next round instantly." Odino grinned as he announced that.

The participants were shocked after hearing that.

You have to know, Grade-2 Beasts are at Foundation Establishment Realm and Grade-3 Beasts are at Golden Core Realm.

And to participate in this selection process, you have to be younger than 18. That brings a problem to many as most of them were at most highest at Mid stage Foundation Establishment Realm (Fourth Stage to Sixth Stage) at this age.

They were already coming up with many ways to kill Grade-2 beasts, but now that they heard they could advance instantly by having a Grade-3 beast core, it made everyone greedy while filling them with fear.

They knew they had a high chance of dying to get a Grade-3 beast core.

They also wanted to team up with someone but were worried that they would betray them after getting one.

Odino had a big grin on his face. 'Hehe, I will let you all get a taste of how sinister the world is.'

Roy sighed at seeing Odino like that. 'Elder is back at it again. However…'

'...it will be a lesson to these young guys and ladies.' Despite feeling the absurdity of Odino's ideas, he still agrees with most of them.

"Now, for the location of the hunt." Odino stopped, creating a short suspense in the air. Then he said while giving a quick glance at Galibar and others. "It is Light Yellow Forest!"
